T

here are a handful of brands of Culture Media in the international

market, and many are being marketed under proprietary trade names.

Himedia, a relatively recent player has by and large adopted the generic names
known to microbiologists worldwide, thus facilitating easy adaptation of the
products.
In several places we are confronted with queries about cross-references of
parallel products. To ease the situation we decided to publish this small booklet,
so that the users are able to identify such products without much trouble.
Although for full details about HiMedia poducts one is advised to refer to The
HiMedia Manual For Microbiology Laboratory Practice, we do hope the present
booklet is able to serve its purpose in making information handy and more userfriendly for selection of the products.
